Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers

Margins divide P&L lines by turnover. Gearing is liabilities over total assets. Current ratio is current assets over creditors falling due within one year. Interest cover is operating profit over absolute finance costs. Sector-distribution context coming next.

Going concern

Affirmed

“At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.”

Significant events

• “We moved in to 51 Lime Street at the beginning of summer 2024 and launched a variety of interim activity such as pop-ups and workshops to showcase the space.”
• “Heritage Open Days took place between the 6th-15th of September. In addition to our popular Victoria Tunnel Taster Tours, this year we were successful in our application to be part of the National Trust's New Wave scheme.”
• “In September 2024, the Pilgrim Trust funded an investigative archeological survey of the Victoria Tunnel to determine whether the original railway fixings are still there.”
• “In March 2025, we were awarded a Scoping Grant from the National Archives - this will see an Archivist visit us on site in July 2025 to go through our photographic and oral history materials and give us practical advice as to next steps for storage, accessibility and longevity of our collection.”
• “Finally, the Trust's collection of photography captured by Richard Blosse and Davey Pearson were featured in the Stepney Western exhibition at Newcastle Contemporary Art Gallery in March 2025.”
